Another great T-Men file!
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 1: HELLO & WELCOME *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
1] Descend the left ladder and draw the men to the bottom right before
they get any chests.
2] Dig down the column of bricks next to the ladder slow enough that
the top brick has reappeared when the bottom brick has been dug.
Quickly run up the ladder to the top of the column and across the
steps for the closest of the two lower chests. When you fall to the
bottom, quickly run out before the bottom brick of the column
reappears.
3] Climb the ladder halfway, then lure the men into the trap at the
bottom. Move them all the way to the left by descending the left
ladder again. Then cross over to the right and repeat Step 2. If you
move quickly, you'll fall to the ground with the second chest just
before the men reach you.
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 2: MUSIC MAESTRO *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
Keep all the men together!
1] Move to the top right corner. 4 men will proceed up and left and
the 5th will climb toward you. Just as he approaches, move left. As
soon as he's near you, drop to the bottom, run right and up the ladder
to a spot that makes him run left.
2] Stay high to draw all the men to the top left. Collect the chests
from the right side and bottom.
3] Draw all the men that are on the bottom to the right side, then
up.
4] Go left and down, moving to the left ladder to keep all 5 men on
the right side. Now clear the left side.
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 3: LADDERS GALORE *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
1] Move left, under the first man and over the next.
2] Lure the men individually into the one place on the board where you
can dig and get rid of them one at a time.
3] Collect all remaining chests.
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 4: DROL HOLE *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
1] Use your position on the ladders to move the men left and right,
dropping each man past and below you through then center channel
before moving up to the next level.
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 5: FOUR IS COMPANY *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
1] Trap the men at the bottom center by moving to the bottom of the
far left ladder.
2] Run over their heads and get all the chests on the right (the fifth
chest from the right has a trap door under it).
3] Dig away all the bricks to the left of the men, letting one man
free.
4] Dig a hole to the left of the man and walk over his head while he's
in it, and force him to the right by positioning yourself at the right
spot on the ladder.
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 6: THE U.N. *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
Get the men into strategic "U's" and walk over their heads.
1] Climb either ladder and position yourself at the top so that the
men fall into the "U's".
2] Using their heads to stand on, dig and release them after getting
the chests. They will drop into other "U's" and you can repeat the
action.
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 7: PYRAMID TRAPS *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
1] Clear the inner pyramid by forcing the men to drop through the top
middle bricks into the right and left "U's" underneath.
2] Drop down after them, get the chests and then release the men to
the next left and right "U's" below them.
3] Repeat this for all areas.
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 8: EIGHT WAS GREAT *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
1] Go up the ladder toward the left hand corner of the screen. You'll
have to duck into one of the diagonal channels and dig to get by one
of the men.
2] Pick up all the chests across the top, dropping from diagonal to
diagonal by blasting through the bricks.
3] Descend a diagonal to the lower left corner and make your way
across the bottom in the same manner, picking up the remaining
chests.
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 9: ARROWHEAD *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
Clear the center arrowhead chests first and trap the men in the area.
1] First, dig a hole in floor above the point of the arrowhead (point
X). Collect the chests that appear at the center of the arrowhead.
2] Collect as many chests around the arrowhead by digging from point
'X' and circling back.
3] Go to either the bottom right or left of the triangle of ladders
above the arrowhead and dig a hole. Get a man to chase you to the top
of the pyramid. At this point dig, trap the man, climb down the first
ladder on the other side of the pyramid, and he'll eventually drop
into the bottom center.
4] After all men are trapped, collect the chests.
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 10: TEN *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
1] Don't fall to the bottom. Step right as you pass the first
opening.
2] Go up the first ladder and to the top of the first section. Dig
your way to the gold chests in the first section in two passes.
3] Climb up the middle ladders and get the chests.
4] The far right section is a matter of timing. At the bottom right
ladder, dig the top brick, hesitate, the next brick under it,
hesitate, the next brick...as soon as you see the top brick forming,
run across the top right to last right brick, dig, drop through, grab
the chest and run through the left hole before the bottom brick forms.
Repeat procedure for the left side of the ladder.
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 11: CHAIN REACTION *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
1] To get to the second and third boxes on either side of the screen,
you must cross over a falling man's head from the ladder.
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 12: CROSS YOUR T *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
1] Go to the far right & up the ladder.
2] The first, third and fifth cross on on the top row are traps. Get
the men to fall in them.
3] Get the last two men together & make them follow you in a circle
while you collect the rest of the chests.
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 13: MAZOLIA *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
Get the men to bring the chests to you!
1] Collect the chests that aren't near the men.
2] Manipulate the men by moving up and down in the center part of the
maze. Get by the leftmost man into the lower central portion of the
board.
3] Continue to manipulate the men from this area as you collect the
chests.
4] To get the leftmost man to part with his chest in the right place,
draw him to the fifth floor on the right and stand at the left of the
third ladder. When he's almost upon you, race up the third ladder and
he'll race up the second ladder. He may drop the chest in the space
between the two ladders. Race down, collect the chest & race back up
the ladder.
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 14: NEW YORK CITY *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
There's no specific strategy for this level except that by keeping the
men together you have a better chance of controlling and getting by
them.
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 15: MAGICAL GOLD *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
Get the far right chest left.
1] Collect all chests across the top except the far right one.
2] Let the rightmost man out of the hole that he's fallen into and get
any chest that may appear.
3] Manipulate as many men as needed to the bottom left of the board
and use their heads to climb the far left ladder.
4] Get the last chest.
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
* LEVEL 16: RUNAROUND QUILT *
*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*
1] Collect some chests from the upper right side of the board.
2] Stay high on the board to attract the men. Then, go down and dig
from the second floor from the bottom on the far right ladder and down
the 'steps of bricks' to the bottom row of ladders...cross to the left
side of the board. Run in circles to avoid the men.
3] Get a man to fall into the hole bottom hole in the center
'circle'. Collect the chests in the middle and get the other men to
fall in to get them out of the way.
4] Collect the rest of the chests.
